Robert went 3-for-5 with a double, a walk, an RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 17-13 win over the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
The 24-year-old has racked up four three-hit efforts in his last 10 games. Robert continues to be effective at the plate with a .340/.380/.516 slash line, four home runs, 18 RBI, 24 runs scored and five stolen bases through 171 plate appearances this season. He should continue to hit most often in the No. 2 spot in the order, especially while he's swinging a hot bat.

Robert went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs Tuesday in the White Sox's 5-2 win over the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
With regular leadoff man Tim Anderson (leg) out of the lineup and with Cesar Hernandez getting the day off, Robert handled table-setting duties for the first time all season. Robert ensured the White Sox didn't miss a beat without Hernandez, as he led off the game with a base hit and came around to score on Jose Abreu's three-run home run. The 24-year-old outfielder is slashing .380/.415/.580 with two home runs and one stolen base in 12 games since returning from the 60-day injured list Aug. 9.

Robert went 2-for-6 with a double and an RBI in Friday's 7-5 extra-innings win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Robert registered his fifth multi-hit effort in nine games since coming off the 60-day injured list. The center fielder is 15-for-39 (.385) with five extra-base hits, seven RBI and seven runs since returning. The bat has come around so quickly that he's been moved from seventh in the order, where he was slotted the first seven games back, to the two hole Thursday and Friday.

EDGE Analysis
After getting a routine day off Tuesday, Robert returned to action Wednesday and continued his hot-hitting ways at the plate, recording three hits for the second time in the series. Robert hasn't missed a beat in his seven games since returning from the 60-day injured list, delivering a .429/.448/.714 slash line while stealing a base in his lone attempt. He'll be included in the starting nine for Thursday's series finale with Oakland, batting second and patrolling center field.

Robert is not starting Tuesday against the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Tony La Russa announced following Monday's win that Robert would get Tuesday off, so his absence from the lineup doesn't come as a surprise. The center fielder has gone 9-for-24 with two homers and four RBI since returning from the injured list Aug. 9. He figures to return to the starting nine Wednesday against lefty Cole Irvin.

Robert won't start Tuesday's game against the Athletics, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robert has been dominant across the last four games, as he's gone 7-for-16 with two homers, a double, six runs and three RBI during that time. However, he'll get a routine day off Tuesday as the White Sox attempt to monitor his workload following his lengthy absence due to a hip injury.

Robert will get a planned day off for Wednesday's series finale against the Twins, Jordan Horrobin of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robert, who returned from the 60-day injured list Monday, played the first two games of the series, but the White Sox want to avoid pushing him too quickly with a day game following a night game. He is expected to be in the lineup for Thursday's Field of Dreams game against the Yankees.
